Let me tell you the story of the first time I used these all star. It was in my first year of College at the time was the beautiful (little did I know that would deform as much), and was anxious to break them, so nothing better than taking a stroll (thought I). I, I took a look at the time and went to school happy in life. That day, I was going to have classes in the morning, so there was little likelihood of getting home with them. The school is out, and when I go to go catch the bus starts pouring "rain seriously, you couldn't wait a little longer?" -I think. However, I try to relativise the situation, when I find myself lying on the ground tail. As you may imagine, my first reaction when I was like a baby on sidewalk was looking at the shoes, they were black. I figured the pests that I begged one floor of my famous College, because Yes, it's that curb that was made for all-terrain boots.
